The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

Sen. Kelly: When folks lose their health insurance, people die. This is easily fixed if Republicans would just come and talk to us. The reason these premiums are going up is because Trump and Republicans wanted to give a big tax cut for the rich, and this is the way they're planning on paying for it

Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill just raised health insurance rates by an average of $2,000 a year for middle class Minnesotans.
He’s prioritizing the pocketbooks of the wealthy - leaving rural communities, middle class families, and small businesses out in the dust.

They shut it down because they’re determined to strip healthcare from millions of Americans, to enrich the billionaires they serve, to continue the assault on our rights.
